My Bio

Potter, yogi, knitter, scientist, teacher, advocate. I just like to make things. My current passion and focus is on establishing the Nonprofit Notions Project, which is designed to use craft and art to promote awareness for important causes. You can see the early seeds of this project in the "Nonprofit Notions" section of my etsy shop, where you will find items that are made to benefit a few of the organizations and causes I support. http://www.etsy.com/shop/lindabelinda I love knitting bears for Mother Bear Project, a non-profit organization which provides hand-knit and crocheted bears to children affected by HIV/AIDS in emerging nations. Without these bears, these children would have no toys at all, something that should simply never exist. I am also creating artwork to create awareness of sloth and rain forest preservation through my current project, "The Art of Sloth Survival." More in formation on this can be found here....

I believe as crafters and artists, we have a gift - the ability to create. I feel passionately about using this gift to give to others.
